The ship lanes are more randomized in GWX. Ships, and convoys, changes course more often. I´ve had patrols with no sightings for weeks.

Stock game is like a turkey shoot, GWX is for KaLeuns with a little hair on their chests!

Don't let Penny here you saying that!

Or any of the others.

Of course I can't vouch for that, but I think it's a pretty safe guess...:rotfl:

Gwx also adds a ton of historical fixes.

He/she, whatever, looks like some of the people that I see in my neighbourhood. Scary!!!


Seriously though, to the original poster: do a search for threads like Hunting Grounds. This should provide you with some tips on where to go to find ships. Also, use the drag down shipping routes map in the nav map screen. From there you can get an idea where the best patrol areas are.
